The president of the Socialist People's Party (SNP), Vladimir Joković, has called an electronic session of the party's Main Board (GO) for today and proposed that this body decide on the dissolution of the Herceg Novi SNP board and the termination of Radisav Nikić's membership in the GO - Vijesti has learned unofficially.
As Vijesti reported on Saturday, citing claims from a source who attended the GO session held on Friday evening, the gathering resulted in arguments and assaults between GO members, and the session continued only after, as the interviewee said, the intervention of some SNP officials who called for a reduction in tensions and reconciliation.
Another source claimed that there was "argumentation" at the session, that it was "inappropriate", but that "it wasn't a terrible drama".
"At the end (of the session), Joković took the floor and provoked the members who warned him about his poor work. There was talk that the upcoming Congress should not be held in Podgorica, that it should not be open to the public, that there should be no guests, that the number of delegates should be reduced...", the source said.
According to unofficial information from Vijesti, Joković had a verbal confrontation with Radisav Nikić at the meeting.
The SNP leader told Vijesti on Saturday that there was a “verbal exchange” at the session, but no physical incidents. He claimed that the session was proceeding normally until “a man who writes from fake profiles (on social networks)” started making remarks, which, he added, provoked a reaction from other members of the Governing Body who responded to him, after which an “exchange of words” occurred.
Last week's session of the General Assembly was held in preparation for the organization of the Congress. The candidacy for the first person of the SNP has so far been announced by the party's vice-president, Dragoslav Šćekić. The possibility of Joković running against him has not been ruled out, as the SNP Statutory Commission gave him the "green light" to run for a third term in early April.
